1.9 diesel golf
« on: August 19, 2009, 10:15:17 PM »
hi , just wondering if anyone can tell me what the fuel economy is like for a 1.9 straight diesel 1997 golf. Am thinking about buying one to drive from laois to dublin for work. The fecker took my company van so need something cheap and cheerful and would like to know what they are like on diesel. If anyone has any other suggestions they would be gratefully rec. :?:

The enquiry was made a good while ago, gor, so dustin has probably sorted something out by now. In any case, he was asking about n/a diesels rather than Td or Tdi.
Most things calling themselves 'Premier' or 'Original' actually aren't.

Never mind, It's an easy thing to overlook, with the low traffic on this forum. That topic was still on the first page of the listings, despite being made in august. Incidentally, I wonder who 'the fecker' was? The O.P's boss?
